The 34th Annual International Arctic Workshop will be held March 11-13,
2004, at the Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research (INSTAAR),
University of Colorado at Boulder. The workshop web site is
http://instaar.colorado.edu/meetings/AW2004/ (note that "AW" is
capitalized).
This workshop has grown out of a series of informal annual meetings
sponsored by INSTAAR and other academic institutions worldwide. In
keeping with this tradition, there are no formalized topics, and the
workshop is organized around themes developed from abstracts submitted
for presentation and poster display. In 2004, we hope to build upon the
increasing interdisciplinary breadth of previous years by encouraging
additional contributions in glaciology and snow sciences. Previous
Arctic Workshops have included presentations on Arctic and Antarctic
climate, archeology, environmental geochemistry, anthropology,
geomorphology, hydrology, glaciology, soils, ecology, oceanography,
Quaternary history, and more.

Reception and Registration: Wed. evening March 10th, 5 pm - 8 pm.

LODGING:
We will provide updated links on our web site to Boulder motels and plan

RESEARCH THEMES:
Arctic Workshops have traditionally included a broad spectrum of talks
and posters. However, we have also accommodated specific themes. We
can also help arrange small group meetings but it helps if we have
notice and a preferred time so we can book the room(s). Please identify
any special topics or needs by emailing Tad Pfeffer at:
